Source Quality Rating Document General Information about .docx
Source Quality Rating Document
General Information about Sources: The best sources of specialized information are not more
than five years old, whereas sources of general information can be older. For example, general
information about cancer that was written 20 years ago might still be accurate, whereas preferred
treatments for lung cancer would be considered specialized information and should be more
current since they change often. Primary sources present original research on a subject, whereas
secondary sources often cite original research, statistics, or information developed by others.
Secondary sources are entirely acceptable for this course and for most academic writing, but one
measure of their quality is the primary source on which they are based. Sources that emphasize
facts and statistics are often more reliable than those that simply provide opinion, even the
opinion of an expert on the subject. There are exceptions to all of the rules stated above.
1. Provide the title of your source and the Internet link or other locating information:
2. Use the Walden Writing Center to locate proper APA citation format, and practice:
3. Rate your source on the following points with 1 being the lowest and 5 being the highest
rating:
• __ How current is the source?
• ___ Does your source cite other sources as the basis for its claims? Yes If so, how
many? __
• Of what quality do you judge the original sources to be?
• ___ Does your source provide statistics or other facts, or is it completely or primarily
expert opinion?
NOTE: More than one rating of “3” or lower should provide the basis for concern about the
quality of your source. In that case, you should consult your professor.

Storyboard on Skin- Innovative Learning (M-pharm) 2nd sem. (Cosmetics)
Skin is the largest organ of the human body, serving crucial functions that include protection, sensation, regulation, and synthesis. Structurally, it consists of three main layers: the epidermis, dermis, and hypodermis (subcutaneous layer).
1. **Epidermis**: The outermost layer primarily composed of epithelial cells called keratinocytes. It provides a protective barrier against environmental factors, pathogens, and UV radiation.
2. **Dermis**: Located beneath the epidermis, the dermis contains connective tissue, blood vessels, hair follicles, and sweat glands. It plays a vital role in supporting and nourishing the epidermis, regulating body temperature, and housing sensory receptors for touch, pressure, temperature, and pain.
3. **Hypodermis**: Also known as the subcutaneous layer, it consists of fat and connective tissue that anchors the skin to underlying structures like muscles and bones. It provides insulation, cushioning, and energy storage.
Skin performs essential functions such as regulating body temperature through sweat production and blood flow control, synthesizing vitamin D when exposed to sunlight, and serving as a sensory interface with the external environment.
Maintaining skin health is crucial for overall well-being, involving proper hygiene, hydration, protection from sun exposure, and avoiding harmful substances. Skin conditions and diseases range from minor irritations to chronic disorders, emphasizing the importance of regular care and medical attention when needed.
